Seecum Cheung’s work explores the link between commerce, surveillance and seduction. Focusing on the idea of the digitized image as a valuable resource for companies and governments in consumer analysis, her work explores data as a form of contemporary currency. Drawing parallels between the origins of surveillance, Seecum correlates a unification between the concepts of marketing consumer analysis, including our own personal output as individuals through social networking, facilitating a market of surveillance and voyeurism through data capture.
